Summary

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory musculoskeletal disorder that causes joint pain, stiffness, skin lesions, and functional disability, significantly affecting patients' quality of life. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) provide essential insights into the impact of disease from the patient's perspective. The Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease-12 (PsAID-12) questionnaire is a validated tool designed to evaluate 12 physical and psychological aspects of disease burden.

The main purpose of this cross-sectional study is to evaluate disease impact using the Arabic version of the PsAID-12 questionnaire and to investigate how disease impact correlates with clinical disease activity measured by the Disease Activity in Psoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA) score in adult patients with PsA.

Participants will undergo routine clinical and rheumatological evaluations, including joint examinations (tender and swollen joint counts), laboratory tests (complete blood count, inflammatory markers such as ESR and CRP, liver and kidney function tests, and lipid profile), and plain radiography of affected joints (hands, feet, and sacroiliac joints). Patients will also complete the Arabic PsAID-12 questionnaire and patient global and pain assessments. All assessments will take place during a single evaluation visit at Assiut University Hospital.
